Product Overview

Volstar 10mg Tablet is prescribed for the treatment of stomach ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It works by suppressing the activity of proton pumps in the stomach lining, which are responsible for acid production. By lowering stomach acid, it helps relieve symptoms such as heartburn and supports the healing of ulcers and acid-related injuries.

This tablet can be taken with or without water, preferably at the same time every day. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and duration. For best results, incorporate any dietary or lifestyle changes recommended by your healthcare provider. After taking the tablet, avoid lying down immediately, as this can worsen acid reflux symptoms.
